This is just…the interview that keeps on giving? Dr. Daihnia Dunkley - affectionately, Dr. D - shared her "why’s" for what keeps her motivated as a nurse leader and educator. From years as an RN to nursing faculty at Yale, she has so much nursing knowledge to pass on. She gets into burnout, diversity, entrepreneurship, and more in this compelling interview. We’re honored - and so excited - to amplify this enduring voice in nursing.

It’s tough NOT to smile listening to this interview. RN Clara Magdaleon took a winding path to nursing, but has found her place firmly in health advocacy, education, and leadership. Clara overflows with passion, and an infectious optimism about the power nurses have to affect change in their communities. As a bilingual school nurse, elected school board member, fitness enthusiast, and budding movement-builder, we’d say Clara represents something pretty special: the next generation of nursing.

Meedie Bardonille is making big moves, and has been leading for a long time. The D.C. Board of Nursing director talked with NurseDeck ambassador and host RN Breanna Kinney-Orr about team leadership, compassion fatigue among nurses, and how to fix the systemic problems in healthcare. We were so inspired by this interview - and think you will be, too!

Texas nurse Haleigh Adamson, MSN, RN, CEN, TCRN, started her business, Nurse Rx Box, to fulfill her true calling: helping her fellow nurses. Recently, she made the tough call to pause her dream business, and shared an emotional video explaining her decision. In this personal interview with NurseDeck Ambassador Breanna Kinney-Orr, Haleigh gets into her nursing career, what inspired her to start Nurse Rx Box, and why she’s moving on - for now

This sunny, down-to-earth nurse says things we all need to hear in this interview. Speaking with NurseDeck ambassador and host NP Jamie Smith, LPN Sue Durichko talks about the importance of understanding others to create a healthy workplace and the difference that inspired motivation can make in quality of care. Best of all, she gets into burnout and the need for nurses to say “NO,” because nurses can’t be everything for everyone at all times. I mean, #validation.

DNP Tranise Goodlow covers the good, the bad, and the ugly of being a nurse and nursepreneur in this week’s episode with host and NurseDeck Ambassador Breanna Kinney-Orr.

Here, she gets into the highs and lows of being a nurse in today’s healthcare climate and as a business owner in the age of internet engagement. Find her on Instagram as @drgthenp.

LPN Lauren Harback got real about her amputee experience in this personal interview with host RN Breanna Kinney-Orr. She’s had her right leg amputated above the knee after being diagnosed with Sarcoma of her nerve sheath - but that’s just half the story. She now shares about what it’s like to live with a prosthetic - especially as an athlete - while being a mom to two amazing kids and continuing to work as a nurse in a correctional facility.

This interview just gives SO MUCH. Cassie opened up about her difficult past and how she found her calling - in being a nurse coach. From balancing her time as a nursepreneur to how she assesses new clients, Cassie told all. This nurse is right where she wants to be, and it shows. Host NP Jamie Smith and Cassie dig deep into how coaching can help nurses.

Dr. Danielle McCamey is an inspiration in countless ways. Besides bringing a down-to-earth, nonhierarchical energy to leadership, she founded DNPs of Color, a first-of-its-kind space for people of color with advanced nursing degrees. We know - cool doesn't even begin to cut it. She shares so much of her experience and herself in this in-depth interview with host RN Breanna Kinney-Orr.

RN Jamie Smith sat down (well, virtually) with the incredible Ryann Mason. You may know her as @chronically_ry on socials or maybe as Ms. Wheelchair Virginia 2020 & 2021. We know - #epic. Ryann was diagnosed with Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome in her teens and now frequently uses a wheelchair - she’s the self-proclaimed nurse on wheels! Ryann is a nurse, sex educator, former EMT, athlete, and advocate. Her sense of humor and warm spirit shines through in this interview.
